Dreams of yesterday
flow upon currents
into  the ocean of tomorrow.
With each rise of silver moon
the tides wash upon the shores
of life~

   Imprinted in the sands of time
   are the footprints of yesterday.
   The surf pounds upon the grains,
   trying to erase the past.

Time
      {oh yes time}
will not let go of the
sweet memories
that have washed upon
it's shores~

   In defeat the tide
   makes it's retreat
   back into the
   twilight of
   days gone by.

The river flows past
the channels of remember
into the dawn of tomorrow~

~It is there that my heart
   will forever sail
   in the vessels
   of your love~

The tide and the surf, two of my favorite things. Good read.

Yummy Donna - simply food for the soul.

Happiness isn't something that happens to you, it's created from within you.  Joy is a state of mind.

you have such a beautiful soul luv you sweet

I don’t want the world to see me
cause I don’t think that they’d understand
When everything’s made to be broken I just want you to know who I am
